Another update that will be popular for 2 weeks max then be useless content.

Yippeee

oh awesome, how about you share what you know that the rest of us don't? I mean, to make such a claim, you must know what the rewards are and how good, or based on your claim, how bad they are. Please do share

As for the images, they don't seem to show to much, from what I can gather, other than it looks pretty cool visually.

Looks good as always but I just can't get over the feeling that it will end up being one of those 'Gotta go do my dailies and POP' type deals. I can see if we could get on the ship and sail to a new island with tons of new resources, interesting creatures/places and meet people with new inventions etc. I hope im wrong though and would love to see this update live up to its hype and to be greatly expanded upon and not get completely left behind for something brand new in the imediate future.

I love the RuneScape graphics team. I really hope there is some amazing and replayable content to come with it. I assume so because you can make tradable armour which degrades to nothing when it is used up so people have to do it multiple times to get the best items.

Looks like something which is going to be very useless and boring and will be popular, as said above, for 2 weeks and then everyone who wants a sailor costume will have one... and stop playing. Unless it's on the high scores then maybe 20 or so will fight to get #1 boat making.

Hate to break it to you mate but no one is begging for your opinion or to continue playing :PP

Looks exciting interested to see how its plays out w/ economy

Check my signature. Everyone is entitled to an opinion and to express it.

My thoughts are based on the other updates jagex has brought out in the past few months, for example the crucible was popular for a week but is now almost completely dead.

you say you express your opinion, yet you present it as a fact.

how can you possibly predict anything about an update that yet has to be released?

Well everyone on this topic has already made predictions and presented them as fact, saying in effect that it's going to be a "fantastic update".

Just because my opinion doesn't fit in with the norm of getting extremely excited about an update on the 'runescape news' forum doesn't mean i should be ridiculed for my own thoughts on this update.

We shall wait and see what the update is like, if it is as good as you all say it's going to be then feel free to rub my face in it.

i scrolled up and i didnt see anyone stating facts about it going to be good or anything. although, if we were to believe what jagex said on last years runefest, this should be the 'extremes and overloads'-like content for skills like crafting, runecrafting, smithing and fletching. which sounds really appealing to me. for that reason i am looking forward to this update and for this reason i dont think it will be dead content all too soon.
